My special interest are my friends. My few actual human friends are only my friends because they share my special interests in some way or another. When interest change, we usually stop being friends. I know that might make me sound like a horrible person, that's just the way it is. I had to suffer through people who liked things that I did not like and people who did not like the things I liked as a kid, I don't have to put up with that s*** as an adult.
I can kind of understand that. I have trouble making small talk. When you both have an interest it's easier for conversation to flow, but when you lose that interest there's nothing to talk about with the friend so the friendship peters out.
I lost so many "friends" back then when I was doing the anime club because some people fell out of anime and then I had nothing to talk about with them to where everything just fizzled out ... xD
